The relation between maternal and cord blood folate activity was investigated in a group of 110 primigravidae and their infants. Approximately half of these mothers had received folic acid supplements during their pregnancy, and the effects of this on infant blood folate levels at birth and at 6 weeks were also studied. In unsupplemented pregnancies there was a significant relation between infant and maternal blood folate levels at delivery. The results of folic acid supplementation during pregnancy were reflected by higher cord blood values, but 6 weeks after delivery infant plasma folate levels were the same in both groups and independent of maternal supplies before delivery.
对110名初产妇及其婴儿组成的群体进行了母体和脐带血叶酸活性之间关系的研究。这些母亲中约有一半在孕期接受了叶酸补充剂,同时也研究了这对婴儿出生时及6周时血液叶酸水平的影响。在未补充叶酸的妊娠中,分娩时婴儿和母体血液叶酸水平之间存在显著关系。孕期补充叶酸的结果表现为脐带血值较高,但分娩后6周,两组婴儿血浆叶酸水平相同,且与分娩前母体的叶酸供给无关。
